Still some colour...

I managed to get into the garden on Sunday, mainly to sweep up the leaves from the large flowering cherry which over looks our little patch. Despite the cold, it was nice to see there’s still some colour in the garden…even if I did have to look a bit harder to find it. :D

The last two pictures are of the Cherry Tree, which I love despite the fact it drops leaves etc all over our garden. Watching it change as the seasons develop, from spring through to winter is wonderful,and it’s a great stopping off point for lots of birds, who in turn visit the our bird table.

It's nice to see flowers so late in the year :o) and the autumn leaves are so colourful too. You're lucky to have that Cherry tree ...
I grow those Gourdes sometimes ... they have such interesting shapes :o)

The seeds are easy to find and grow :o) They climb like sweet peas. You can pollinate them like courgets if you like, or just leave them do it themselves :o) I've had some nice shapes and colours over the years. I think I'll try them next year too ...
